Subject: [PATCH] mm: disable CONFIG_PER_VMA_LOCK until its fixed
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit
A memory corruption was reported in [1] with bisection pointing to the
patch [2] enabling per-VMA locks for x86. Disable per-VMA locks config to
prevent this issue until the fix is confirmed. This is expected to be a
temporary measure.
